How The Elite Control Our Elections... And How We Fix It

Maine could rein in super PACs and put limits on donations for the first time. Unlimited billionaire and corporate spending on elections has been crushing our democracy. 

In one month Maine voters could cap dark money and set a precedent that could save America. 

----- More Perfect Union’s mission is to build power for working people. Here’s what that means: We report on the real struggles and challenges of the working class from a working-class perspective, and we attempt to connect those problems to potential solutions. We report on the abuses and wrongdoing of corporate power, and we seek to hold accountable the ultra-rich who have too much power over America’s political and economic systems. We're an independent, nonprofit newsroom.
